About Publicis London

Publicis London is a creative advertising agency in the UK arm of Publicis Groupe. It makes campaigns for clients such as Cadbury, Lloyds, Renault, Electrolux, AEG and Tourism Ireland. Recent 2026 work listed on its profile includes a Foster's campaign, an AEG campaign called It's Your Haus, and a Lloyds Pet Insurance dog couture catwalk at London Fashion Week. LBB also shows double gold for Lloyds and Fertility Action at the Ocean Outdoor Digital Creative Competition in October 2026.

The agency says "We move the world through the power of international creativity" and believes there is "nothing more valuable than an idea that moves the world". It aims to make people think, feel and act differently. It describes itself as IPA Effectiveness accredited, which means effectiveness is central to its work. A profile gives 1985 as its founding year, and in 2019 it merged with Poke and Arc to become Publicis.Poke before returning to the Publicis London name in 2024. When Publicis Groupe created the Leo network in January 2025, it said Publicis London would keep its name while joining it.

The agency has been described as based in London's Square Mile, and one profile gives 40 Chancery Lane, WC2A 1JA. However, a 2024 trade article reported a move of its offices to White City, alongside Leo Burnett UK, Fallon London and Saatchi & Saatchi London. Charlie Rudd, chief executive of the creative practice at Publicis Groupe UK, led that move, and in January 2025 Campaign ME reported Publicis London as led by Trent Patterson, chief operating officer. A directory lists 101 to 150 staff.

The agency describes its culture as diverse, curious, confident and collaborative, with an international outlook. Its London DE&I Council runs allyship and awareness work, and it reports launching family-friendly, menopause, disability, trans inclusion, domestic violence and carers' policies between 2021 and early 2022. Its global principle is called "Viva La Difference". These are the agency's own statements.

Roles include creatives, strategists, account managers, producers, creative technologists and designers. The agency lists film and creative technology as strengths, and its sectors include finance, food, beauty and health, home and travel. Publicis Groupe has more than 101,000 staff worldwide, and LBB lists over 26 associated agencies in the group, so London sits inside a very large network.
